彼时,一位中国明星因为表演了一段比较娘炮的篮球舞蹈而成为了一个经久不衰的meme。
从艺术创作的角度来说这段舞蹈顶多只能说是对它的目标观众群体的反应产生了误判,但是此段舞蹈的传播给这个明星和文化所带来的巨量而持久的影响实在是令人叹为观止。
说实话有点惨的。
等哪天我们成历史的时候。
考古的一看,好家伙,全是meme。

I found a jpg of
a sleepy security guard
on an ad-plagued news site.
It’s poorly taken,
brutally compressed
and posted with an clickbait title.
Why?
a number of

arranged in a way that
intrigues blobs of connotations
put together to form the impression of

moderately interesting.

became a symbol of
generic and elevator.
In a distant corner of the room,
a speaker plays
generic
elevator music,
which was once created with the
intentions of being great
Is that a tad cringe?
Nah,
it's probably quite good.
I need to imply
the stuff occupies a niche conceptual strata,
right?
What else?
I need to lay the recognitions to assure
the values of these works are
commonly agreed.
On Instagram, I have six hundred followers..
I... I've got compliments tho,
Ray next door says,
"your works are actually cool"
Thanks,
but was I not cool before?
Did my work become particularly cooler recently?

now perceived as
faintly artistic.

这些问题好像确实不是老炮还真回答不上来。
当时还是年轻了,当然现在我也不。。
凸,光阴荏苒。
有多当地呢,家都不用出。
在当时我想做一个VR展览,但是在媒介中增加的这个维度瞬间使得其发展失去了控制。
好像所有事都可以干,干了一大堆,扔那了,当不了展览了,更像是个花园。
当时还有很多重要的问题还没有答案就开始动手了,导致了此项目在耗费了很多时间之后崩溃。
Do I watch motivational videos every day
and "get after it"?
Do I rent a tux to go to private views?
Do I hold a champagne with classy cues?
Do I study
<15 tips for networking at cocktail parties>?
Do I laugh at jokes I can't amuse?
Do I keep a smile on my face at all times?
Till my face hurts and eyes sore?
Under the circumstances of which,
I have to either:
1, bink uncontrollably;
2, keep the lids opened really hard;
or 3, close my eyes.
A bit weird,
but as long as it aligns with my branding.
Right?
Ke-la-see,
like cash glaze down my cheeks,
hast me to please
Drawn to the impression of classy,
what an ancient feeling
"Classy", a socially formed heuristic -
what classy people liked in the past passes through
the diffusion to become other people's impression of classy.
Classy, implies survivalbilities.
Oh, drawn to survivability,
isn't it the forever theme of human endeavour?
Isn't "like" the chemical illusion
to justify
"taste", the sniffer of survival?
Until a lady dislikes
rhyming in my poems
"rhyming is not classy",
she says

为了制作这个佛像我们购买了一堆据说有奇效的商品,包治百病的辐射贴纸,提升运动能力的橡胶手环等,然后把它们以崇高的仪式感组合在了一起以聚集它们的神力。在完成这尊佛像过后它确实好像活过来了,并开始释放出具有迷幻色彩的超动感电磁射线,并对我们进行了立即的保佑。🙏🏻🙏🏻 ”

“ 什么东西都在电子化/线上化。我们通过把婚礼这个人生当中最重要的仪式线上化来反思/讨论/质疑这种线上化的边界到底在哪里。仪式感一直是线上化的对立面—线下世界的特色,但是如果连仪式感都可以线上化,那此边界是否还存在呢?
美学上,我们使用了很多日常化、本土化、廉价化的视觉原料来体现了一点的野蛮感和人情味,和一些赛博水土不服。
这种力求赤裸地表现文化现状的视觉语言中隐隐透露出对线上化的讽刺,但是在作品初具雏形之时我们又有了新的体验,我们真的是在讽刺而不是在进行一种投降甚至是推波助澜吗?”
